  1. I would go somewhere else but, I am a student and that is a huge hassle, plus, the prices are just too nice at my DZ, (when I get the chance to jump.
  2. This only slightly related, but Coca-Cola Classic formula proved to be a 100 percent spermicide in laboratory conditions.

    Why ??

    Well now that Jumperpaula is posting in here, I am going to post too, just so that my post can be beneath hers. Since this post doesn't yet actually have a RW relate topic here's a question. I am on the s/l progressions. At what second delays will I most likely start having problems with unintentional turns in freefall, if I have those problems at all? Oh by the way, I have never actually met paula, but she is pretty damn cool. "Let the rabbits wear glasses. . . "
  4. Well, that is an interesting point. And was not my intentions. If anything I am unimpressed with his (the DZO) not making it clearly known that he was leaving. This happen once before earlier this winter, once again on a beautiful weekend. Turns out that most people did know about him not being there this time, but somehow no one ever thought to tell me. Considering I am one of the more zealous students there, you would think they might think that I might show up, like I do given any chance. The way I found out he wasn't there this time is I had to go and ask in the flying field office. Apparently he "left a note" with the office. Which serves no purpose until someone comes in to ask about it. As I was getting ready to leave, someone else showed up who is actually friends with the DZO and he had no idea either. As for the phone issue, technically they have a phone listing, but it's just his house phone, so if no one answers it can mean they are all at the DZ or out of town or out to lunch. Who knows. All that said, when people are actually there it is a great DZ with really well maintained aircrafts, and really friendly regulars, and good prices. He even just recently got a helicopter working that they will probably start doing loads from in the near future. This part is special just for you kingbunky. I would rather snow be on the ground and I know that I can't jump than spend all week seeing a great forcast for both weekend days, and getting all excited and then drive all the way to the DZ before I find out I can't jump, because the DZ is closed and no one told me. So, in my opinion your situation is better. You at least know where you stand, so you don't get you hopes up for nothing. Needless to say, I will be living vicariously throw all of you guys again this weekend. Do a jump for me.
  5. Ok, folks. Sorry bout this post, but I had just spent 1.5 hours of driving for absolutely no purpose, and it had happened before, so I was a bit upset. I guess I lost hold of that "go with the flow" kind of mentality for a bit. But I was pissed, dammit. Anyhow, interesting how it got turned into a inalienable rights issue. Clever how it got turned from the fact that I needed to vent my frustrations, and yea I was whining, but I think bitching (can I say that here?) would probably be more accurate. See, guys do it too, sometimes.
  6. Yea, I would call ahead too, if they had a phone at the DZ.... Maybe I am whining, but when you spend your whole week looking forward to something and then get there to find out no one was considerate enough to tell you that no one will be there, that tends to make me at least pretty angry.

  7. Ok, this is the second time since I have started jumping at my DZ that the DZO has taken off for Florida, and has done a piss poor job telling anyone about it. Also coincidentally, on a really nice weekend. If the DZ says it's open on the weekends then it should be open on the weekends, unless they post it clearly far ahead of time so that people will know not to bother driving 45 minutes to find everything locked up and no one around. That's just fucking irresponsible. And it's not like I can just go somewhere else, because I a right smack in the middle of my student progression. I'll say it again: I can't wait til I get my A license. Then I won't have to put up with this crap! Hey has anyone else noticed that I am a little pissed off?
  8. Actually no, I just wanted to see how one word would bring another word into someone elses mind. I just chose "Boobies" arbitrarily because I figured, "might as well get it out of the way." That way someone else won't use it. SQUINT "Let the rabbits wear glasses. . . "
  9. Ok, I will start with the obvious choice... BOOBIES "Let the rabbits wear glasses. . . "
  10. My parents have always supported me in whatever decisions I made, be them stupid or not so they didn't have a problem with this either. I did get a lot of "be careful."s though. But they didn't have too much of a problem cause they loaned me the money to get my first rig. (Haven't put any skydiving expenses on credit card yet) I think I have even talked my mom into a tandem.
  11. So how about my second question. How is that going to affect my being in the middle of s/l training...? "Let the rabbits wear glasses. . . "
  12. Couple questions. Maybe I just missed it, but was is ISP? Secondly how are the new rules going to affect someone like me who is already halfway through my s/l progression? "Let the rabbits wear glasses. . . "
  13. Well, I am curious about how this was actually done. Anyone care to enlighten me? "Let the rabbits wear glasses. . . "
  14. I jump in Franklin, about 30 minutes south of Indy. "Let the rabbits wear glasses. . . "
  15. Just make sure you take lots of picture for all of us who can't be there, and be sure to post them.
  16. We didn't even have to beg for that one. Now we just gotta get sangiro to put that pic on the Pub page. "Let the rabbits wear glasses. . . "
  17. Ok, Paula, you are too cool. Where do you jump at?
